Archos recently released an update to their Archos 5 Internet Tablet.  The most substantial feature in the update, is the ability to purchase and install paid Market apps.  In my opinion, this is a HUGE win for the device.  Users can now install premium apps, that were once inaccessible.  While this doesn’t make the Archos 5 an “iPad killer”, it does bring us hope for the upcoming Archos devices.

Do you have an Archos 5?  What do you think?
